Benefits of technology
The present invention provides a cargo liner storage assembly for an automotive vehicle that includes a storage bin, a cargo lid assembly, and a cargo net assembly. The cargo net assembly can be attached to the cargo lid or the storage bin, and includes a cargo net and a cargo net mounting assembly. The cargo net has side latching loops and storage fasteners, which can be used to secure the cargo net in a useable position or a stored position. The invention allows for easy and convenient storage of the cargo net, which can be easily attached and detached from the cargo lid or the storage bin.
Problems solved by technology
In a vehicle having a conventional cargo liner assembly there is limited storage area behind a rear seat of the vehicle when the rear seat is in an upright position.
Specifically, there is limited floor space behind the rear seat to place items without the more fragile becoming damaged.
For example, in the event that a person has multiple items whereby some of the items are fragile, such as glass items or food items like eggs, bread, etc., and the other items are heavier non-breakable type items it is difficult to store and secure the items behind the rear seat without the heavier items shifting and damaging the fragile items during operation of the vehicle.
